25.01.2022 Wildlife Water Station Posting this as it is a plumbing related subject that could help all animals that have been affected by our recent bush fires and drought conditions in Australia. Easy and cheap to make. The 2019/20 bushfires have devastated large parts of Eastern Australia with millions of native animals killed. Animals that survive the fire desperately need water to recover. This cheap and easy to make water stations can provide a water source for animals such as Koal...as, Wombats, Kangaroos, Possums and birds. All parts should be available from your local hardware store or plumbing outlet. The water stations can be secured and placed in areas that have been affected by the fires or drought. Be sure to remove the water station after the area has recovered, we dont want to be littering. Supplies: 1.5m length of 90mm PVC stormwater pipe 1 x 90 degree 90mm PVC pipe bend (male - female ends) 1 x 90 degree 90mm PVC pip bend (female - female ends) 1 x 90mm end cap 1 x PVC cement (make sure it is drinking water safe) Step 1: Join Parts Together Assemble all of the parts before you glue it together so you know how it will look. Step 2: Glue Parts Together Clean all of the surfaces to be joined. You can use methylated sprits or acetone. It is critical that all joins are watertight so follow the instructions on the PVC glue bottle. Most PVC glue comes with a brush inside the lid. Make sure both surfaces are evenly coated in the PVC glue before you join. The glue goes off fast so be sure to push parts together firmly and hold as instructed on glue bottle. Use gloves, the glue can be messy if you get in on your hands. Step 3: Allow Glue to Dry and Test Allow Glue to Dry and Test To fill with water you will need to lay it flat on the ground and fill until water comes out of the bend. Lift the station upright and water should be just below the open section of pipe. If the water spills out you may have a leak at the top where the end cap is joined. The water should replenish as animals drink. Step 4: Install the Station You can tie the station to a vertical tree or post with rope ,cable ties or straps. To refill you will need to remove and lay it flat on the ground. Great job helping the animals affected by the terrible bushfires! Post a photo back of a completed station in use.

24.01.2022 Well it’s not everyday we need the help of a crane to take an old water heater off a customers roof but we used one this week. We had a customer that had an old solar heater that had been disconnected and left on his roof by a previous plumber for 10yrs. The old solar tank and collectors were rusting away and in danger of sliding off his roof , only being held by one clip. As the roof was extremely steep a crane was needed to remove the old heater and after 3 hours it was safely down and on it’s way to the tip.

05.01.2022 As everyone knows, at Cheapa Hot Water we specialise in all types of hot water heater installations of electric, gas and solar. But something our customers ask me about regularly is how do we get those big solar hot water heaters up onto the roof!!!! Well the answer is simple , a few years ago we invested in purpose build lift called a mighty lift. They are manufactured in Victoria by an engineer. This type of specialised lifting equipment is used on almost all our solar hot... water installations. There are a lot of benefits to using this equipment for the home owners and also our employees . For the home owners the job is finished safer and faster which results in lower install costs to them. There is also less risk of damage to there property buy using the lift. . This type of equipment makes sense for our company to use as we are replacing solar hot water heaters every week but for the average plumbing company that might replace one or two solar heaters a year purchasing this equipment is not worth investing in. Using an everyday plumber to replace your solar hot water will end up with the install taking longer, costing the customer more money with potential damage being caused to your property or the new product being installed. This is another example why using a specialised tradesman makes sense. For more information visit our website https://www.cheapahotwater.com.au/solar-hot-water/
